Ordered Pt3Mn Intermetallic Nanoparticles Supported on Atomically Dispersed Mn–N–C as Electrocatalysts for Fuel Cells

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 33, 10 August 2026.
Ordered L12‐Pt3Mn intermetallic alloys are uniformly deposited onto atomically dispersed Mn–N–C supports. The synergistic effect between MnN4 sites and Pt3Mn elevates interfacial binding strength and dissolution barriers while favorably weakening *OH adsorption. It delivers exceptional catalytic activity and stability in fuel cells, serving as an ideal

Effect of Metal–Metal Distance on the Performance of Dual‐Atom Catalysts for the Oxygen Reduction Reaction: A Density Functional Theory and Micro‐kinetics Study

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Density functional theory calculations and microkinetic modeling were carried out on 108 dual‐atom catalysts with varied metalmetal distances ranging from 2.2 to 3.5 Å. The results reveal that moderate spacing of around 3.0 Å promotes bridging oxygen adsorption and dissociative reduction pathways, weakens the hydroxylhydroperoxyl scaling relationship ...

Evaluating Pt Nanoparticle Electrocatalyst Stability on Corrosion Free Carbon Supports Using Identical Location TEM

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Pt nanoparticle stability during accelerated stress testing at high anodic potentials was investigated using identical location TEM on a corrosion‐resistant boron‐doped diamond (BDD) electrode. Changes in nanoparticle size, position, and response with respect to nearest neighbor distance on a particle‐by‐particle basis were tracked using machine vision

Oxophilic Yb2O3 nanoparticles as radical scavengers to enhance the durability of Fe–N–C oxygen reduction catalysts

open access: yesSmart Molecules, EarlyView.
Fe–N–C catalysts suffer from radical attack during oxygen reduction. By immobilizing oxophilic Yb2O3 nanoparticles near Fe–N4 sites as efficient radical scavengers, the catalyst achieves enhanced activity and stability. Abstract The practical application of Fe–N–C catalysts in proton exchange membrane fuel cells is substantially limited by their ...
